  1. UNDERWATER COOPERATIVE MANIPULATION AND TRANSPORTATION Giuseppe Casalino http://www.isme.unige.it After the development of some pioneering projects during the nineties, the topic of underwater manipulation, and in particular cooperative manipulation and transportation, to be performed under floating conditions and within different types of cooperative forms, is now receiving an increasing attention by part of the research community, in the perspective of transferring the relevant technologies toward different underwater intervention applications, of both civil and commercial types. In this perspective the talk will provide an overview of the control and coordination problem which as been afforded by ISME (within different collaborative projects of both international and national type). Now available control and coordination results, near to be transferred toward practical applications, will be outlined; then followed by a presentation the on-going research activities, addressing the extension of cooperative control methodologies to more complex underwater intervention scenarios foreseeable for the near future.
